The Dr I saw yesterday is very knowledgeable about his craft, and I appreciated his honesty about my feet, because they were in bad shape. I am looking forward to my next apt to see about “the decent shoes and compression socks” I should be wearing with my insurance helping to cover costs. I do not like it when my feet hurt. This is my toe the last pic I’ve taken? It’s looking much better and I am not going to lose it. He’s very gentle when he shaves away tissue that doesn’t need to be there. Karen

Dr. Rudolph did the most amazing job taking out the biggest in grown toe nail on my 14 year old son with 0 pain tolerance. Dr.Rudolph took his time by making sure my son was not in any discomfort. Told us step by step everything he was doing. Glad we found a good foot doctor!!!!!

Dr. Rudy had to cut a sliver of my toenail out that was causing me some issues. The way he conducted the visit, procedure, and took care of me-everything he did was perfect start to finish! Immediately my foot felt better. I had such a good experience and would go see him if I ever need help again.
